Sideboard
table Southern Federal Huntboard circa 1789 - 1805
|
In the late 18th century, during the Federal period, the Sideboard
was an important addition to dining-room furnishings. Sideboards were used as service
tables and to store fine linens, silver and
more. Mahogany was the preferred wood with inlays of holly, maple, satin and other
woods. The Sideboards were most popular from 1789 to 1805 when Hepplewhite, Shearer
and Sheraton designed these tables. Shearer
was the first to introduce the tapered legs. Buffet tables may be accessorized with
our fretwork mirror, Apple tea container, Pear tea caddy or Bombay tea caddy or Federal
Tea Caddies.
